4. WHEEL ALIGNMENT
The front wheels have specific angle to allow control of the steering wheel with less effort, ensure driving
stability, improve steering wheel restoration and steering performance, and minimize the tires wear.
1) Toe-in
The difference of measured distances between the front ends of the tires (A) and the rear ends of the
tires (B) along the same axle when viewed the wheels from the top
TOEUnilateral : 0.10 ± 0.16°
Total : 0.20 ± 0.13°
When viewed from the top, the distance between the tire centers is smaller in the front than in
the rear. ▶
Side slip protection
Parallel front wheels rotation (straight ahead driving is ensured by toe-in to prevent the wheels from
tilting outwards by the camber while driving)
Prevention of uneven (outward) tire wear
Prevention of toe-out from wearing of steering linkage -

2) Camber
The angle between the center line of the tire and the vertical line when viewed from the front of the
vehicle
Positive camber: Top of the tire is tilted outward ▶
Advantages: The axle is not bent when it is loaded.
The force required to operate the steering wheel is reduced due to smaller
contact area (or load area) of the tire.
Restoring force of the steering wheel is gained (when turning the steering
wheel, the tire circles and the force to lift the frame is applied. In this case,
the shock absorber contracts and the restoration force is applied to the
steering wheel.) -
-
-
Disadvantages:Cornering force decreases as the positive camber increases when the
vehicle makes turn.
The hub bearing is worn unevenly if camber is excessive. -
-
Zero camber: When the tire center line is perpendicular to the ground level ▶
Negative camber ▶
Advantages:
Better traction force due to wide load area (applicable for off-road vehicle)
Better corner driving when the vehicle makes turn as the cornering force
increases (applicable for high-speed F1 vehicle) -
-
Disadvantages:
he axle is easy to be bent or deviated in the negative camber than in the
positive camber when load is applied on the axle.
Difficult to control due to wide load area. -

3) Caster
The angle between the vertical line and king pin, which fixes the steering knuckle and front axle, (steering
column which connects the top and bottom ball joints in the independent axle type) when viewed the
tires from the side.
Caster: With considering the height difference between the wheel centers of the front and rear
wheels. (Under standard condition that the vehicle is on a level ground) ▶
Positive caster: Top of the king pin is tilted backward from the vertical line of the wheel center
when viewed the tires from the side ▶
Advantages:Directional force to go straight (following control)
Restoring force of the wheel (restored to the straight ahead direction)
Prevention of wheel shimmy (wheels wobble left and right) -
-
-
Negative caster: Top of the king pin is tilted forward from the vertical line of the wheel center when
viewed the tires from the side ▶
Advantages:
Disadvantages:Impact from the road is transferred to the steering wheel (steering wheel turns)
Poor straightness -
- Smaller turning radius -

1. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
1) What is ABS?
When braking suddenly or braking on slippery roads, the vehicle keeps moving forward but the wheels
are locking and not rotating. If these happen, the vehicle may lose stability or rotate resulting in an
accident. ABS helps to maintain directional stability and control of the vehicle. ABS is designed to
secure more safety and increase the control of steering wheel during emergency braking situation. But,
ABS does not guarantee perfect safety beyond its physical limit. ABS in this vehicle contains EBD
function. In normal driving conditions, the brake system operates without ABS function.
2) What is EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution)?
EBD is an automobile brake technology that automatically varies the amount of force applied to each of a
vehicle's brakes, based on road conditions, speed, loading, etc. Always coupled with anti-lock braking
systems, EBD can apply more or less braking pressure to each wheel in order to maximize stopping
power whilst maintaining vehicular control. EBD does not operate when ABS is working.
